FASTEST IN-FLIGHT WI-FI UNLEASH THE INTERNET

WORK, SURF, SHOP, AND PLAY LIKE NEVER BEFORE

EXEDE INTERNET SERVICE BY VIASAT CHANGES THE WAY PASSENGERS

EXPERIENCE IN-FLIGHT WI-FI WITH THE FASTEST INTERNET SPEEDS. This highly-differentiated service is the first of its kind, capable of delivering

12 Mbps to each connected passenger giving them the best in-flight

experience available. No other in-flight connectivity service delivers value

to airlines like the Exede service.

Growing use of tablets, phones, and other mobile devices with bandwidth-

intensive applications and media-rich web pages has created an explosion

of demand for higher speeds, whether at home or on-the-go. People want

fast connections no matter where they are and 35,000 feet is no exception.

Commercial airlines can deliver an unmatched in-flight Wi-Fi experience at

an affordable price with the Exede Internet service. Many passengers will

simultaneously enjoy a high-speed Internet connection similar to what they

get at home. Connected passengers can work, surf, shop, and play up to 8x

faster than competitive services giving airlines an advantage.

• Fastest in-flight Wi-Fi with Internet connection speeds of 12 Mbps or higher to the passenger.

• Service level agreement provides the greatest value to airlines.

• Highly-differentiated Internet experience to attract passengers and build loyalty for added services.

• Low operating expenses and cost-effective equipment means high return for airlines.

• Airline controlled retail service packaging and pricing.

THE EXEDE SERVICE ADVANTAGE

FASTEST INFLIGHT WI-FI

In-flight connectivity services have evolved and consumers want to browse the web more like their home or office experience. Only ViaSat, by leveraging our leadership in high-capacity Ka-band satellite technology, is poised to respond to the simultaneous growth of take rate and bandwidth demanded by each passenger. The Exede service is capable of delivering 12 Mbps to each connected passenger. Competing in-flight services are based simply on an aggregate amount of bandwidth to the plane that leaves passengers contending for service.

With the Exede service, passengers can work more efficiently and get more done with quick downloads. Leisure travelers can shop online, book that last minute hotel, or watch short video clips. Our service offers the best experience to the passenger while the economics of Ka-band give a sustainable advantage to the airline.

BEST VALUE TO AIRLINES

ViaSat designed the Exede service level agreement to be the most effective for the airlines based on Internet usage and industry research. The service levels are aimed at meeting the economics requirements of airlines while satisfying passenger demand. In addition, the service can evolve as passenger take rate increases.

Each passenger’s usage is monitored to ensure a superior experience for all. Airlines can offer a basic service with options to give high-demand users expanded service.

HOW EXEDE SERVICE IN THE AIR WORKS

Exede Internet service for commercial airlines uses high-capacity Ka-band commercial satellites to send and receive data from the aircraft. The aircraft has several wireless access points to provide each passenger with the strongest signal. Passengers will connect to the aircraft network similar to Wi-Fi connections on the ground making it simple and seamless.

Data is transmitted to and from the plane through the satellite to the ground station and back. As the plane moves through the air, the antenna performs automatic hand overs between coverage areas.
